Research on Women in Family Firms

Current Status and Future Directions

Rocio Martinez Jimenez

University of Jaen, rmartine{at}ujaen.es

Based on a review of 48 articles and other research works published since 1985, the current work examines both obstacles to and positive aspects of women's involvement in family firms. The most important findings of this work concern the important role that wives play for the continuity and growth of the family firm and the factors that can help or hinder daughters to progress professionally and achieve leadership positions in this type of firm. Research questions and methods and implications for future research and practice are also presented.

Key Words: family firm • women • succession • stereotypes
